An angle-of-attack sensor includes at least one acoustic transmitter is configured to provide an acoustic pulse. The first acoustic receiver is positioned at a radial distance from the at least one acoustic transmitter. The first acoustic receiver is configured to receive the acoustic pulse at a first time and provide a first receiver signal. The second acoustic receiver is positioned at the radial distance from the at least one acoustic transmitter aligned with an axis that extends through the at least one acoustic transmitter and the first acoustic receiver. The second acoustic receiver is configured to receive the acoustic pulse at a second time and provide a second receiver signal. The angle-of-attack circuitry is configured to determine a delay difference between the first and second receiver signals representative of a difference between the first time and the second time and determine an angle-of-attack based upon the delay difference.
